[ 1 ] - Evaluation of soil pollution sources using multivariate analysis combined with geostatistical methods in Zanjan Basin, Iran

The increase of heavy metals concentration in soils is potentially threatening the environment and human health. In this paper, multivariate analysis methods such as Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF), Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cluster Analysis (CA) combined with geostatistical method were employed to identify the potential sources of soil pollution. A collection of 103 samples we...
